💁🏻♀️ ICYMI: 🐧🤖 Engineers at #MIT and #EPFL built a flapping-wing #robot that swims #underwater and flies into the air.
Inspired by diving #birds like #puffins, the small #vehicle folds its #wings to handle water density. This #technology could help scientists collect environmental samples from both air and #water.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: A barn #owl can catch a #mouse in a completely dark room using only its sense of #hearing.
The secret lies in its #feathers – reflective facial disc feathers focus #sound into asymmetrically placed #ears, while serrated wing feathers muffle noise mid-flight. Engineers at #Siemens are now mimicking owl feathers to make quieter #windturbines.
